British chicken, tomato and basil pasta - Waitrose
Penne pasta with sliced chicken breast tossed in a tomato and basil sauce. £2
Waitrose, London ENGLAND

The texture and flavor didn’t sit well with me. I could only eat a few bites before trying to pawn it off on other people.

These aren’t the healthiest snacks, but I figured that getting one mini pork pie wouldn’t be too bad for me. They’re actually really tasty, and the pastry shell is definitely buttery and rich.
